Back to: Streets of Rage 4.

Hidden levels

Four hidden "retro" levels exist within Streets of Rage 4 which recreating boss fights from Streets of Rage 2 (complete with the original Mega Drive graphics). The player is given one life in which to complete the scene, and once the boss is defeated, a star is rewarded.

All are accessed in the same way; pick up a taser and attack an arcade cabinet. This idea is inspired by various works of fiction from the 1990s, such as the manga Video Girl Ai, the TV series Weird Science or Jackie Chan's movie City Hunter which used power surges applied to machines as plot devices^[1].

Characters that cannot pick up weapons (Shiva and Roo) cannot access these stages. Attacking the arcade machines with anything other than tasers will just cause them to break and leave behind a money bag.

Stage 2: Police Precinct

Sends you to Downtown, the first stage of Streets of Rage 2, to fight Jack.

Stage 4: Old Pier

Sends you to the Amusement Park, the third stage of Streets of Rage 2, to fight Zamza.

Stage 5: Underground

Sends you to the Stadium, the fourth stage of Streets of Rage 2, to fight Abadede.

Stage 8: Art Gallery

Sends you to the Syndicate Stronghold, the eighth stage of Streets of Rage 2, to fight Shiva and Mr. X.
